 .DISCUSSION...
 Dry weather continues today, but a stray shower is possible tonight. 
 Most of Wednesday will be dry. A stronger system brings the 
 potential for severe storms ahead of and along a cold front 
 Wednesday night and Thursday. In addition to the front, moisture 
 feeding into the area from a Gulf system could heighten the risk of 
 excessive rainfall Thursday into Friday. Drier conditions return for 
 the weekend.
